gutbucket - Insomniacs Dream
Gut Records
Artist: gutbucket (www.gutweb.com)
Title: Insomniacs Dream
Label: Gut Records
Genre: Well..
Okay, now that we're at the New turn of the century, this will be the jazz your parents will warn you Not to play/see. They'll withdraw your allowance and shut down the condom machine in the bathroom, and you won't be able to grab a pierced ear of drums, guitar, bass and sax that make up a very promising gutbucket.
Jazz? Well - it's not pop, too fitful to be rock. The closest you might say is progressive, but it has a bit too much attitude for that. Grab a few titles like 'Revolution For Sale', 'Song of Seasickness', and 'Sweet Tooth, Bleeding Gums' and you might get the idea. I'm now on the 2nd minute of the latter, and while fusion might excite nuclear experiments, gutbucket is wrenching a lot of twitter and weird beat tribal customs from just a guitar and a diseased drum set. Garage band jazz. A professional practice session that's getting far too worked up for a Sunday morning. Define it, then multiply it, and let me know what you label it.
The only vocals you'll hear on the cd will be from Someone now and then screaming with pain or delight, taken by the moment and slapped around silly. But the music will arrest your attention as much as any words can, oh yes, so be wary of 'Consumption (the white america suite, pt. 2)' else you might find your dog howling to go out.
Those who can complete the following famous saying will know full well what gutbucket's bright vision of punk styled jazz brings. 'If you want a thing done well' and the answer of course is 'leave it in the microwave overnight.'
11 tracks with women tied to them, 49 minutes of spontaneous glow. The critics love them. I mean, you just Have to, don't you? It's the sharpest jab in the ass jazz has had for quite a while. It's almost worth living in NYC squalor to be able to see these shape-shifters live.
